Memoirs of Steph

New Looks

She’s traveling to Orlando this week so all I get are selfies. She took these before she left then the last one was after her run today in Fla.

More from Bodyscape

Another addition to a shot a I got while at my friend Charles studio in Norfolk. 

Full Shave

Steph was getting tired of the half shave and decided to go full shave and start growing out her hair again. In the mean time while she’s growing it out we can get some “bad girl” type looks in. She doesn’t like it very much but I do.

What do you think?

Beach Boudior

New gallery... one of my larger sets? What do you think?

Distressed

I liked the idea of shedding off these clothes as the shoot progressed. 

Editing/Workflow tutorial

Sorry I look tired here lol. Here's a quick real time work flow unscripted. 

Bodyscape

I just filmed a tutorial/bts look at the editing and the creating process to this shoot. I'll have it up later today. 

Stopping by Norfolk

We went by our friend Charles studio. He has been photographing longer than I have but we have similar styles and I always learn something new when I shoot with him. We both shot a concept with Steph today.

He’s the only other photographer that’s really photographed Steph besides me. I’ll have the shots I got up tomorrow. Here’s two preview shots he sent her.

If you are in...

Neptune

Some of the portraits we got this morning. Interesting but fun. Also thank you everyone for the birthday wishes.

Birthday

It’s my birthday today. Steph woke me up and made me go on a run with her. In return I get to take pictures of her. Here’s what we got so far.

Cat Woman

Today’s shoot. Much more on the way 📸

Jumping In

I finally found this photo from years ago... I may of told some of this story before. But we went to a state park one day with a few friends. The park had places to hike and camp, and one spot had this waterfall where you could jump in the icy cold water.

None of us had brought swimsuits. But us guys just took off our shirts and jumped in with our shorts. Steph, however, wore pants that d...

Beach Trip

We are headed to the beach this week on Wednesday for several shoots. It's also my birthday soon so we are using that as an excuse to get away for a few days. Hopefully you wont mind a bunch of posts coming your way the next several days.

Besides the first photo taken last month...here's a look back in 2017 at our very first beach shoot in California. I don't think I have posted these bef...

Home Studio Tour w/Steph

Here’s the garage studio in its current configuration. It’s been 6 years of progress.

Cosplay World 2023

Steph modeling a look for a leather craft vendor in Cosplay World. I came along to document. There were a lot of cool costumes in play.

Date Night

A throw back to this dress haul shoot we did a few months back.

Truck Wash

A couple weeks ago we were on our way home from photographing a client. I have a hard time turning off the desire to take photos once I start so I asked Steph if we could stop and wash our truck and snap some shots. I was rather impressed with her photography skills.

We share one car together and use it mostly for hauling gear, but it makes for some fun photos as well. We are not really f...

New Projects

We’re finishing up some look’s tomorrow then I should have a curated gallery up. Also her gains are coming in nicely 💪

Refined (Gallery)

I had this glitter for over 2 years sitting in my drawer in the studio. We wanted a break from lingerie shoots so I figured we would give this a try. 

If you want a fun idea for a shoot try baby oil with glitter. Just be prepared for a mess. 

New Try-Ons

I’m editing today some of the many looks we filmed. I’m surprised she wore the first one.

Photo Dump

The past couple of days. Steph made me eat some weird salad and I took a lot of photos of her. I ordered this kitty mask that I think will be a fun classy lingerie/nude look.

Silver Shine

Today's shoot involved a lot of clean up, here's the first look.

Fun Looks

Today's Lingerie shoot...more to come on this set. We did not get through all the looks today so we will shoot more tomorrow and film. We are headed to Virginia Beach in a week or so, for several more days of shoots. We look forward to another month of creating with you all.

Sorry for the Absence

She’s been away traveling visiting a family member the past 3 days. She’ll be back today and we plan on creating much more this week 🎥📸

Morning Selfies

She’s traveling but she sent me a good morning text.

Pony Pasture

Yesterday's shoot summarized by some video clips I snapped during the 1 hour shoot. Steph was looking beautiful as usual.

Buzz?

It looks like she has a full buzz cut here. Do you think she should rock a buzz cut for the rest of the summer?

Dreamy River

A day with Steph at James River in RVA. This particular part along the water is called Pony Pasture.

I knew I would be shooting in high key natural light. If someone had been with us I would of liked to use a reflector to help fill some of the shadows.

I used a 50mm and shot at 1.4. Since I was doing video too I had an ND filter on. So my shutter was around 250. I bumped my WB to a ...

The many looks of Steph

Which do you like? Artsy vs cell phone shots. 😆

Bow Tie

Some more edits as of today that I added to the gallery. I am totally out of hard drive space at the moment and I am also in the process of upgrading computers mainly to allow me to film higher quality footage for video work. Once that is complete and I upgrade my server in the next week or two I am starting a new effort to make a short film under Memoirs of Steph project. One every three month...
